After the birth of both of my girls, I have been a stay-at-home dad. I have been a childcare provider for a local mom's group, been a sitter for two other young girls and two young boys, and worked as a camp counselor for older children with and without disabilities. My professional career has included being a case manager working with single mothers and their children and young adults with developmental, intellectual, and/or physical disabilities. For the last five plus years, I have been a Sunday School teacher for children of all ages. I have volunteered-coached AYSO soccer for young girls. I can provide numerous recommendations from many parents!
